[DeTomaso] Tesla Drivers???

I think electric cars are the way of the future, for better or worse, due
to governmental regulation. I hate my cars being demonized by these
arrogant "holier than thou" hypocrites, personally, although at some point
I do plan to get an electric car just to get used to it. I think as
commuter cars for going to work they are great and that is about it.
I still recall about a year ago the pissed off looks a Tesla driving dude
was giving me when my now dead truck was idling nicely with the exhaust
perfectly placed near his open window at a stoplight. The V8 being a
straight pipe the noise was an added factor for Konrad enjoying himself
being a total ass :)

A A So reading about Konrad's unfortunate experience, he mentioned
A A something about Tesla drivers. I have had multiple Tesla
drivers
A A wanting to race me since I got my Pantera on the street. The
first one
A A was interesting and I let him go, not wanting to race on the
street.
A A The next few got annoying and I wanted nothing to do with that.
I'll
A A enjoy my car the way I want to, thank you. Anyone else
experienced this
A A sudden desire of Tesla owners to race you?
